道源圣城

Dao Yuan Sheng Cheng

从2005年开始,成都恩威集团对道教发源地鹤鸣山二十二平方公里进行整体复兴开发,重建“道源圣城”。通过对中华传统文化、中华根本之“道”进行梳理,将上下五千年之学统、道统加以形象化、立体化、标准化的展示,以道法自然、关爱生命、崇尚和谐的思想,使鹤鸣山成为全球道教信众的朝圣地。重建“道源圣城”,本着“仙道贵生,无量度人”的核心思想,以期将鹤鸣山打造成为一方道家康复养生的福泽之地。重建规划分三期把鹤鸣山打造成集中华传统文化教育基地和养生旅游福地于一体的“道源圣城”。2008年5月,道源圣城一期工程已经建成并对外开放,主要包括山门,游客和信众接待中心、玉琮广场、太极广场、鹤鸣桥、百艺大街、道膳堂以及包括灵祖殿、文昌殿、三官殿、祖天师殿、老君殿等二十余座建筑的祖庭宫观区等。道源圣城建筑采用国内道教宫观群中罕有的仿汉代建筑风格,宏大壮丽而富于变化,是融汇古今的建筑精品。尤其是高九米九的道教发源地标准物——玉琮石雕、高八米五的天师铜像、高二米八的老君塑像、高五米的景泰蓝灵祖塑像,以及长达四十多米的“道源仙踪”巨幅铜浮雕等,具有极高的宗教和艺术价值。

Back in 2005, Chengdu En Wei Group (恩威集团) started the initiative to redevelop the vicinities of He Ming Mountain. Plans of expansion and modernization were conceived to redevelop a total area of about 22 square kilometers and the project was named “Dao Yuan Sheng Cheng” (道源圣城) – meaning the sacred city for the origin of Tao. The mission behind the development was to pay tribute to the Tao’s respect for nature, love for life and the appreciation for harmony. Therefore, the core thinking of the project was to apply a positive philosophy of life that revolved around respect, rejoicing, gratitude and mercy; and to share these attitudes with others. Positioned as a blissful place for practicing the Tao’s way of life, there were altogether three stages of development that combined Chinese traditional civilization, rehabilitation and travel. In May 2008, the first stage of development was completed which included a new main entrance, tourist and information center, Yu Zong Square , Tai Chi Square, He Ming Bridge, Bai Yi Street (百艺街), a vegetarian restaurant as well as a number of temples such as Ling Zu Temple (灵祖殿), Wen Chang Temple, San Guan Temple, Zu Tian Shi Temple and Lao Jun Temple. The architectural style is similar to the buildings of the Han Dynasty in grandiosity with its assortment of details, and is also a great model to demonstrate the fusion of modern and ancient styles. It also houses a number of precious religious artwork such as the landmark of Dao Yuan Sheng Cheng – the Yu Zong stone sculpture that stands 9.9 meters tall, the 8.5 meters bronze sculpture of Tian Shi, the 2.8 meters sculpture of Lao Jun, the 5 meters cloisonné sculpture of Ling Zu as well as the 40 meters wide relief carving depicting the travels of Taoist deities.
